alhaitham analysis
When you first meet Alhaitham, he comes across as someone that has a negative EQ. He's curt, rude, and critical. And yet the truth is surprising? Like looking at his character quest and how he basically emotionally manipulated the whole hive into revolting, this man is very emotionally intelligent. You can honestly see it in a lot of his lines too. When he speaks about people, yes, he may sound like he's simplifying or trivializing things too much, but he's not wrong. He understands people. He knows how they work. It's just that he views emotional labor as too much of a hassle majority of the time.
Spoilers below the cut
You can gather a lot about Alhaitham through Kaveh's character stories. Like while it may not seem like it, Alhaitham is genuinely trying to help Kaveh. He points out to Kaveh that the source of his problems isn't luck, but his sense of impractical idealism and inescapable guilt. Some may say Alhaitham lacked tact when saying this, but it was kindness on Alhaitham's part. Once someone can acknowledge the truth, no matter how hurtful, they can then make the needed changes for the better. When they met up again years later, Alhaitham asked him, "How has realizing your ideals gone for you?" This wasn't done out of a sense of pettiness, but to solidify the truth once more. It was to help.
I think if you don't know someone that operates in this way, Alhaitham's love language may be difficult to decipher. His words may seem cruel. It may seem like he's trivializing your problems. But to speak truth is to show that you're not a lost cause. He has proven he won't abandon you along the way. After all, to speak truth, no matter how hurtful, is to show love.

Ok guys. I have to make a fascinator hat (extravagant little hat) and I’m doing a genshin floral theme. Does little witch academia have any important flowers? Closest I can think of is the papilliodya chrysalids.
These are the two designs I’m looking at at the moment. The genshin flowers I’m adding are wind wheel asters, Cecelia’s, Lisa’s purple roses, glaze Lillie’s, and qingxins. And maybe violet grass

Albedo !!
#'s - SFW , No Specific Romance Mentions, No Reader or Y/n Descriptions (this was all just brain rot)
Syrian - Botanical Science Major Philosophy Minor - Works As an Illustrator
Most likely places to meet him:
The train/bus. He keeps a pretty consistent schedule during school, so if you cross paths with him in the mornings or evenings it's most likely going to be on public transport.
Albedo does end up missing the night trains quite often though, or flat out just stays overnight at the school or a friend's dorm anyway.
However when he's taking care of Klee, he'll always make sure to walk her to school and home. You might see them walking down the street, Albedo holding her book bag while Klee excitedly tells him about her day.
The Coffee Shop. Especially on the weekends. Catch him with a 9am milkshake and a shitton of homework. Albedo isn't much of a breakfast person anyway so sitting in the cafes during the morning, sipping on coffee works well for him.
Once or twice he might have ended up bringing Klee to the cafe while he works, but he would prefer not to because it's not really an ideal place for her. Cafes are a bit boring for her and coffee isn't good for kids (he'll split a hot chocolate with her though)
---
His Phone:
In terms of games, all he has is 2048 and Talking Angela, but man he will spend HOURS on 2048. Talking Angela was originally for Klee but he ended up playing it too, especially the mini games. His Angela is only slightly neglected on occasion.
He has an SD card, so his phone storage isn't fucked by all the pdfs and scans he has on there.
His contacts don't really have any customization or unique names.
His wallpaper is a picture of nature, like a pretty cloud formation, the sunset, trees, etc.
7- 25 tabs open at any given time
His Clothes:
Albedo prioritizes durability, utility, and comfort over fashion. However, he does keep a few dress pieces because he gives lectures on occasion, and he also attends events for academic circles (kinda rarely) OR book events for stuff he's worked on.
Albedo tends to lean on the colder side, so most of the time you see him with some form of long sleeves or under cloth. Despite this he still likes to wear short sleeves so he also layers shorts and button ups over what's usually a plain and solid colored long sleeved item.
He isn't a major jewelry and accessories guy but mr kredeprinz (lol) does like gold as his metal of choice.

I’ve never once regretted picking Lumine as my traveler, aside from the very beginning of the game where the only reason I regretted it was because I usually pick the male characters to play and I was worried I would come to like Aether better as the main character.
(for some reason I usually just connect better with male characters then their female counterparts. idk why, I wish that wasn’t the case because there are some great female characters out there!)
And if I had to make another account to be my main account I’d pick her again in a heartbeat!
Sometimes though, I just really wanna play Aether, but I can’t and it’s so sad ;—;
To make matters worse, everyone I play with picked Lumine too, other than my older sister (who is actually the reason I picked Lumine so that we could play the twins together lol) and she almost never uses him 😭
I really hope at the end of the game they give us both twins to play (not that I’ll likely still be playing by the time the story is over haha)
